[lucasderksen]

Im trying to run the sonar-scanner command but get an error telling me it could not startup dartanalyzer -h even though it works directly when i use dartananalyzer -h in cmd line.

when running the command directly in the same directory it does work. see code below.

Hello, that happened to me on Windows, somehow it doesn't work properly..

And because I was just testing on my machine I just deployed it into a container with Linux and it worked properly.

Not sure if this is a bug on Windows.

[lucasderksen]

hmm alright, thanks for the reply, might try it in a container aswell.
it could be a windows specific bug indeed.

I have the same error with docker sonarqube:7.6-community:

ERROR: Error during SonarQube Scanner execution
org.buildobjects.process.StartupException: Could not startup process 'dartanalyzer -h'.
	at org.buildobjects.process.Proc.<init>(Proc.java:91)

The error can be fixed by Flutter/Dart installation.

[mszeptun]

I have the same error, already install Flutter and Dart. Waiting for some solution as I need it for my Master Thesis

Hey @skindud , can you explain how exactly the installation of Flutter/Dart fixed it for you?

I got the same error. The following command works in cmd but not when I run sonar-scanner

C:\tmp> dartanalyzer -h
Usage: dartanalyzer [options...] <directory or list of files>

The root cause of the error that there is not dartanalyzer (or not PATH to it) in the system.
I have just run "flutter pub get" (in this case flutter download and install dartanalyzer add path to the program to PATH environment variables)

cd $GIT_FOLDER && flutter pub get cd ~ && export PATH="$PATH:###pwd###/flutter/bin/cache/dart-sdk/bin" cd $GIT_FOLDER && dartanalyzer lib/

[bikotoru]

Has anyone been able to fix it in windows?
install flutter, install dart, but it still doesn't work.

PATH = C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0;C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\bin;C:\flutter\bin;C:\flutter\bin\cache\dart-sdk\bin;C:\Program Files\Git\cmd

and if from the server run dartanalyzer -h

[lifehalo]

In the file DartAnalyzerSensor.java,

Change the following line.

//private static final String ANALYZER_COMMAND = "dartanalyzer";
private static final String ANALYZER_COMMAND = "dartanalyzer.bat";

Use Maven to re-compile and generate jar file.

Encountered the same error in while implementing this in a SonarQube Docker.

The problem lies in the fact that an efficient installation of Dart and Flutter is difficult in a container, except for creating volumes and binding them to the container.

I have all the files in my container, all paths assigned, and even then, SonarQube says that it could not execute dartanalyzer -h

Request you to look into it, it's a similar issue as that of OP.

This fixes the problem for me. I just added the path to my ".../flutter/bin/cache/dart-sdk/bin" and then it works.

I'm facing this error, but result of command "dartanalyzer -h" in the same directory and it don't work.
I tried to fix dartanalyzer, but it was hopeless. It show me that "dartanalyzer: command not found".
my errors:
ERROR: Error during SonarQube Scanner execution
ERROR: Could not startup process 'dartanalyzer -h'.
ERROR: Caused by: Cannot run program "dartanalyzer": CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified
ERROR: Caused by: CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified
ERROR:
ERROR: Re-run SonarQube Scanner using the -X switch to enable full debug logging.

Anybody help me!!!

[zippy1978]

Hi all,
The error is related to the fact that dartanalyzer command cannot be found on the path.
However, I do not have any Windows box around me.

@lifehalo solution could be the right one.
Did someone had the chance to test it ?
If so, I will push the fix n the next release.

[zippy1978]

Hi,
This issue was fixed in 0.3.0.
I close it.
